Guitar Pro Tab Summary

Notice

Note 1: Since I transcribe using piano, guitar specific things can be a bit difficult to get right. When a note is palm muted it's tonality becomes much less pure and artificials can pop up; couple that with low tuning and thick distortion and it can get pretty incoherent. What I've tabbed is what I hear. I assume this was actually played on a 6 string, as the notes oscillate out of tune like they would if they were played on a really loose string. I'm pretty sure this is correct, but if in doubt, simply play the open A# throughout the whole section. It's not correct, but the kickdrum absolutely dominates the recording, so it probably won't sound like a glaring flaw. Fun fact: Rondo is a music form where a central theme is presented and then interspersed between conflicting themes. Not to be confused with Verse-Chorus-Verse structure, it's use in this song is a bit more far fetched than in classical music but it does dictate a central theme (the opening riff) and then goes off into other sections that never reappear verbatim, ultimately coming back to the central theme.
